  2. U. Hawaii MSFE- Any thoughts?

    Can anybody point me to a thread about this program? If not, does anybody have any insight on the program? Admission stats, etc? I'm less concerned about placement as I'll likely be applying for PhD programs following my masters. Any thoughts appreciated! Dan
  3. Escargot?

    Ostrich burgers. They are delicious.
  4. Undergraduate Advice

    IMHO, Northwestern and CMU look best on a resume. You're best off going to one of these schools, especially in a mathematical/physical science discipline. Good luck with your search.
  5. Any Math courses?

    ODEs and PDEs = Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations. If I were you, I'd check out the NetMath programs at the U. of Illinios online. I know they have multivariable calc. Also, the Columbia video network is a good resource to use, though it's not cheap.
  6. Ivy League PhD Finance Programs

    No, I don't. But I'll take what I can get at this point. I'm anxious to begin this Fall without deferring for another year.
  7. Ivy League PhD Finance Programs

    My Bachelor's is in Industrial and Labor Relations (not very quantitative). That's why I didnt think I had a shot at top MS Financial Engineering programs. I'm actually still completing the math prereqs, but UNCC let me in without these being complete. Thanks for the input.
  8. Ivy League PhD Finance Programs

    Hi all, I'm pondering the idea of applying to some PhD Finance programs this upcoming Fall, but am unsure what my chances are/how competitive the top programs are. I'm enrolling at UNCC this Fall to complete a masters in Mathematical Finance and my BS is from Cornell (I had a 3.6). I have a...

  10. UNC-Charlotte...any opinions?

    thanks Andy! I knew I had seen a similar thread in the past.
  11. UNC-Charlotte...any opinions?

    Just discovered that UNC-Charlotte has a mathematical finance program that seems relatively easy to get into. Does anybody know anything about the program? I'm most interested in placement rates. Are there any other threads on the subject that I'm not aware of? Thanks! Dan
  12. Spring Admission- FE Programs

    Hello all, Is anybody aware of a comprehensive list of schools that offer Spring admission? I'm in the process of taking the GRE and completing my prereqs, so I've missed Fall 2010, but am looking to enroll Jan 2011. Any input is helpful. Thanks!
  13. Really would appreciate any career advice

    Ushahid, we're kinda in the same boat. I graduated from Cornell with a BS in Labor Relations, and I'm just now pursuing prereq courses for MFE. I think your assumption that it would take 1.5 years to complete the prereqs is false. I'm taking 3 calc classes, linear algebra, statistics...
  14. Fordham MSQF Fordham quantitative finance

    Anybody have any info about the fordham ms program? Specifically, I'm concerned about placement rates, admission stats, etc. Any info would be helpful. Thanks. Dan
  15. What are some good safety schools?

    Hey all, I'm applying this fall for FE programs and was wondering what are some second tier safety schools. Also, does anybody know of any comprehensive list of admission statistics for the top schools? Thanks.
